I drew a concept sketch of the beetle enemy based on a real-world species called the grapevine beetle. This enemy will NOT fire bullets at the player but instead moves back and forth in front of other enemies blocking your bullets from hitting them.

I have two things to show off!!! Firstly, the hints system is now (in enough of a sense for the beta build-out at least) functional, and, secondly, I tweaked the honey-bullet sounds a bit to try to make attacking the enemies more satisfying.

It's kinda incredible how much simply changing the text font(s) will, by itself, complete the aesthetic of a game, especially in the menus.

I love TextMesh Pro so much!

Kikkerstein had a great day 1 at LVL UP EXPO!

If you’re in Vegas, come see us on day 2!

Finally working on the sprite for the beetle enemy!!! I need to get off my computer and do some stuff right now but I thought the idea of posting a headless (I haven't done the head yet) beetle screenshot was hilarious so I'm doing that first lmao.

We have a question and we wanna know: What's the coolest easter egg you've ever seen in a game? Complete the quest and you'll get 100 Coins!

I DID end up making the body and elytra both 1 cycle/s and the wings 6 cycles/s. I'm working on a video of the animation itself playing in the Unity editor so you guys can see it properly. I think it turned out well!

I've gotten the defeat animation for the enemies in this game working! Next thing I need is a good sound to complete the effect. I quite like this animation as-is but I'll probably tweak it post-beta. The first beta should be out by new years day!

Happy #WIPWednesday! Are you working on a game? Making some art? Practicing a song? Something else? Tell us in the comments!

I added an animation and sound effect when the player collects the heal-up drop. In the lore, this flower is going to be Hensen's favorite food which is why the sound effect is a crunch like he's bitten into something.
